Deprecation does not cause an api version bump. *Removal* probably
would. At least, that is how I understood it.

Note that when running released versions of bzr, deprecation warnings
are suppressed. They are only shown when running rc's and dev versions
(IIRC). So that developers realize they should update, but users won't
be bothered.
